Hence, this study examined knowledge transfer and use as predictors of Nigerian law firm performance. The study adopts descriptive survey research design and web-based questionnaire as instrument for data collection. There was total response of 205 from the survey. It was found that Nigerian lawyers transfer knowledge through platforms such as meetings, training, workshops/seminars and collaboration. Results show that Nigerian lawyers use knowledge to improve innovative thinking, enhance performance, maximize financial performance and improve client’s satisfaction. Results show that there is statistically significant relationship between knowledge transfer and law firm’s performance. Results show that knowledge transfer and use will significantly predict law firm’s performance. This study provides fresh ...
